STATOR FOR ALTERNA'rING-EmiocrRic-CURRENT MACHINES.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, J ENS LAssENLA Conn,

a citizen of the Kingdom of Sweden, residing at Vesteras, Sweden, have invented new and useful Improvements. in Stators for Alternating-Electric-Current Machines, of which the following isa specification.

, This invention relatesto stators for alters nating electric current machines having bar winding. g o o As is well known it'is very advantageous in alternating electric current machines to use one'bar only in each slot, the most important advantages of such arrangement being the following: There is no risk that a series connected bars are shortcircuited and therefore insulation against the iron core Such insulation (may consist for instance of a tube of paper, micanite or the like. Repairs can be made in a simple and ready manner even in par tially or completely closed slots, because the bars together with their insulating tubes can be drawn out from and inserted into the slots from the one end thereof. The coil heads will be well ventilated, simple, and strong, the bars being connected by means of copper strips separated by air spaces. The strips canreadily be soldered to the ends of. the bars or, 'when necessary, be removed therefrom. Considerable reduction of the eddy-current losses, created in the i bars on account of their own magnetic field.

i However, it has heretofore'been possible to build alternating electric current machines having one baronly in each slot only in case the machines have a low tension, a high number of kilowatts, and a high number of revolutions, because the number of slots, in most would be so narrow that, after deducting cases, would be.too high so that the slots at normal magnetic densities in the teeth the vinsulation, no or only. a small width would remain for the bar. Consequently it would be necessary to make the slots very deep, whereby the teeth losses and theeddycurrent losses of the bar would increase in for its object to Specification of Letters Patent. Patented Fb. 22, 1916.

Application filed April 9, 1914. Serial No. 830,714. 1 p I overcome these difiiculties and widen the range of'utilization of bar windings having one bar only in each slot of a stator core. The invention consists, chiefly, in that the slots are not as hitherto arranged in one row tion of one embodiment of theinvention, in

which are providedtwo rows of slots, each slot being adapted for one bar only. Fig. 2 shows a partial cross section thereof on the line II-II in Fig. 1.

Referring to the drawing, 1 designates the stator core of an alternating electric current machine,2, 3, are the bars of a main bar winding disposed inslots in the stator core and comprising one bar only per slot. The ends of said bars are extended outside the stator core as shownin Fig. 2 and connected by end connectors 4 in well known manner. As shown in the drawing the'slots containing the bars 2 and 3 are arranged in staggered relation to each other whereby a suit.-

cient number of bars can be disposed around the inner circumference of the stator core without decreasing too much the width of the teeth'5 between the slots containing said bars and without disposing more than one bar in each slot.

It should be understood that the invention is not limited to the constructional form shown in the drawing but that modifications can be made without departing from the essential features of the invention. For instance, the slots may be arranged in more than two rows and the slots need not be openat the inner surface of the stator core as shown in the drawing.

Having thus described my invention, what Iclaimis: v y
